Re: Customize Debian image in a mini desktop
I used the network applet and just configured it to see eth0 and ppp0. I'm not that interested in seeing IP over USB traffic but you could add that by just adding another applet on the taskbar for it. I'm currently finishing up a battery power python app for any of the system trays (GNOME, XFCE, etc) so you can see battery power when zhone is either not open, or minimized. I plan on adding phone network status and other information to it as well. I'll post the link here when I'm finished. -Tom - Original Message - From: "Michele Renda" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "List for Openmoko community discussion" Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2008 10:10:39 AM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: Customize Debian image in a mini desktop -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 With the problem with the onscreen keyboard, I solved keeping the keyboard closed when booting, and opening it only after the boot.

I'm using the jffs2 and kernel images from here: http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.8/ I haven't installed much of anything, or made any fundamental changes to the configuration. I did it on a fresh boot. One thing to note, and this is related to Chris's earlier post, connecting with GPRS irrevocably breaks GSM, and no amount of changing the power state of the chip would recover it. Actually not even a reboot would bring the use of the phone/dialer back. I had to halt the system and then boot it. Presumably rebooting doesn't power down the chip and so it stays in some sort of inconsistent state. If anyone knows how to recover the use of GSM after using GPRS, that would be useful. My only suggestion at the moment would be to totally power down the device, get a fresh boot and then trying "pon tmobile" before doing anything else, especially before using the phone.

om2008.8
OK, I really want to like it, but it has some deal killers some of which are beyond my ability to fix. 1. it only connects to the phone network on every fourth boot or so. Not sure if that's a provider problem or not. It works fine in 2007.2. there doesn't seem to be a libgsm-util utility or a gsmd anymore so I'm not sure how to go about troubleshooting it. 2. pppd doesn't connect to GPRS anymore. is om2008.8 using multiplexing now or does the gsm still need to be reset before connecting to gprs? If so, how does one disable it? 3. terminal not installed by default. This is kind of frustrating if you have usb network problems and need to get it going. 4. is there a way to change the fonts on the menus and the menu look in general? 5. qpe crashes randomly. 6. wifi says "unknown" for status and no iwconfig available. 7. what's up with resolvconf? I can't seem to get it to config a nameserver to save my life. I realize these things are to be expected as this release just came out today and some of these things are already filed as bugs , but I thought I'd add my $0.02 and ask some questions in the process. -Tom ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: Tmobile GPRS
Still no dice... what's in your peer script? When I do a 'pppd nodetach debug call gprs' (gprs is the name of my peer script), it hangs right after "Starting GPRS connect script" and goes no further. I was able to connect once today using qtopia, but for some reason it never connected again after that and continued to hang at random times during the list of AT commands. I'm stumped as to what could be causing this issue. I did do a /etc/init.d/gsmd stop echo "1" > /sys/bus/platform/devices/neo1973-pm-gsm.0/power_on chown uucp.uucp /dev/ttySAC0 stty -F /dev/ttySAC0 crtscts before calling the pppd script to no avail. Could this be a kernel issue?

Tmobile GPRS
First off, the phone I have is the gta02. I've tried using the various settings I've found around the net to get pppd working with the T-mobile total internet plan, but I'm having issues with the connection script failing. Using the settings from the T-mobile pppd scripts found on the Wiki, it will get to different stages of dialing each time I try it, but will never connect. If iIuse the gsm tool to send the AT commands manually, or if I echo them out in the connection script, it will get to a point where it just hangs. So, I hit CTRL+C to cancel it and run pppd again and it goes a little further. Eventually I can get past setting the APN, then when it tries to dial, it fails. I've tried both *99***1# and *99# to no avail (Tier level 3 support told me they use *99#). I did get it to connect once but it would disconnect again. I couldn't troubleshoot those problems as I could never get it to connect again. So, for anyone who has gotten it to connect (internet2.voicestream.com), which distribution are you using and which kernel image? Below are the settings I'm using: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cat /etc/ppp/peers/gprs # /dev/ttySAC0 115200 crtscts lock hide-password defaultroute # set the default route usepeerdns holdoff 3 ipcp-accept-local lcp-echo-failure 12 lcp-echo-interval 3 noauth noipdefault novj novjccomp replacedefaultroute persist debug connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/tmobile-connect" disconnect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/tmobile-disconnect" [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cat /etc/ppp/tmobile-connect ECHO ON TIMEOUT 30 ABORT 'BUSY' ABORT 'NO ANSWER' ABORT 'ERROR' SAY 'Starting GPRS connect script\n' ""'ATZ' SAY 'Setting APN\n' OK 'AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet2.voicestream.com"' ABORT 'NO CARRIER' SAY 'Dialing...\n' OK 'ATD*99#' CONNECT '' -Tom ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
